Clint Eastwood's Richard Jewell chronicles the true story of a security guard who heroically helped save lives during the 1996 Atlanta Olympics bombing, only to become the focus of a relentless media and FBI investigation. The film follows Jewell's fight to clear his name, aided by a principled attorney and relentless journalists who clash with a climate of sensational reporting and political pressure. The performances ground a complex portrait of media sensationalism and the human cost of a national obsession with scapegoats.
